NORTH Sydney is the third largest home unit rental market in NSW, with 11,359 government-held bonds according to a PRDnationwide research report
JUST over a year ago business partners Daniel McFadyen and Dale Wilkinson decided to embark on their first renovation project together: the makeover of a 1950s home with magnificent bushland views of Degotardi Park.
FROM the outset this house has a picturesque, yet relatively modest street presence. The home, named Deepdene, is on a meandering east-side avenue, with many classic streetscapes.
On entering No.22 Kylie Ave its interwar, Old English/Queen Anne architectural heritage is apparent. The foyer consists of a cosy waiting area, including window seats, leadlight windows and original floorboards.
But the wow factor appears when you step into the open-plan kitchen/dining area with its vast district vistas of Gordon and St Ives. The views were one of the main selling points for the current owners.
They said with its leafy views the home was more like living in the mountains than the middle of Killara. After living here for 10 years the owners are now downsizing. But this house has been a great home for the family that loves to entertain.
INTERVIEWING and choosing the ideal agent to sell your property can take a lot of time and effort.
A free service called Which Real Estate Agent, makes the job easier by impartially researching and shortlisting local real estate agents who are experienced in successfully selling similar properties.
It is then up to the vendor to meet the agents and decide who to give their listing to.
When the property sells, the agent pays 20 per cent of the sales commission to Which Real Estate Agent, keeping the service free to the vendor.
